Sorry, I missed your reply.

Sorry, I missed your reply.

What did they tell you you needed to know?

That I need a new front diff but I can still run in 2Wd without it affecting anything else.

Also confirmed that my surf is pressurising water`

Might sound like a basic diagnostic but I've been through 3 week of hassle to get here

Get the guy who broke it to go halves with any costs.

Doubtful. What are the symptoms that led to this diagnosis?

Also confirmed that my surf is pressurising water`

Your Surf will always pressurise the water in the cooling system. It's over-pressurisation that's the problem. Again, what are the symptoms and how was the diagnosis reached?

How much experience do they have with Surfs?

Not sure but the 3 weeks hassle wasn't due to this garage it's been all the hassle to get to this stage

Is the noise when the truck is moving or stationary? Is it definitely from the front diff, or could it be further back or out to one side?

That could be an air lock, have you overheated the engine at any point? The best way to check for a gubbed head or head gasket, is to have a sniff test done.
